Design and functionality:
Now these speakers are compact indeed. They fold up conveniently and while they are they hardly take up more space than most cell phones while unfolded, they are 220 mm long. In other words you can always find enough room to bring them along and place them anywhere, even if the table happens to be all covered in dishes, cups – you name it. Speakers are connected to a source of music (cell phone, player or any device) through a standard 3.5 mm jack. The good news is there are two adapters in the package that provide connectivity to Nokia phones featuring pop port or any other device with 2.5 mm jack. The audio cable is 75 cm long and we believe that should be more than enough in most cases.


Nokia Mini Speakers MD-4 are turned on/off with a button on the backside and volume is controlled from the device you´re using as a music source only. This isn’t such a pain in the back, since the controlling device would be at no more than 75 cm away at most.
What we do like is that you only need to fold them up to cut off the music. This is done the following way – there´s a small protruding cog on one of the inner sides of the speakers that simply pushes the on/off button that´s located onto the other inner side. Simple and hassle-free! Moreover, there´re magnets lodged inside both “shoulders” that prevent you from spreading open the speakers accidentally.
Nokia Mini Speakers MD-4 have a simple look about them that may not appeal to anyone, but we definitely don´t think this is a problem, especially if the speakers measure up to their task, that is, to deliver loud, high quality sound.
